In addition, the Engineer provides cable length data, termination gland requirements and calculates that the core sizes are all correct for the application. This ensures that when the installation and commissioningengineers come to connect the substation system, all the separately designed and supplied elements join up as an integrated whole.

Without good Interface Engineering, you don’t have a system; you have a collection of separate and isolated components which will not work together properly.

With good Interface Engineering the overall system forms a complete, interconnected and coordinated solution.
